Hey Auckland,

Hey Auckland,

What do you think about the Government's new 10-year transport plan? Although the rest of the country is set to benefit from transport investment, it's a double-whammy for Aucklanders. Locals will now have to face petrol price hikes as well as the newly approved regional fuel tax.

How will this affect you and your family? Are you for or against the new plan? Will the petrol price hikes force you to use more public transport? Let us know in the replies!

It was made from a pair of jeans from an op shop. "All of my gardening clothes come from op shops," she says. "Large men's shirts make good cover-ups to keep sun and insects off my arms. For the apron, start with a smaller size than you would wear so it doesn't wrap around too far. Check that it has a lot of pockets." So tell us if you've got similarly fashionable, exclusive-for-the-garden glad rags, and if yes, why not post a photo in the Reply space too!
